  1. 21. Mechanical and thermal stability of hard nitride coatings

    Författare :Yu-Hsiang Chen; Magnus Odén; Lina Rogström; Tomasz Liskiewicz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Hard coating’s thermal stability is essential due to the high temperature environment of high-speed cutting applications, while the phase and microstructure evolution induced by exposing the coating to high temperature affects the mechanical properties. In this thesis, the mechanical stability of arc-evaporated, hard, transition metal nitride coatings annealed at high temperature is analyzed and related to the phase and microstructure evolution.

  3. 22. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis of BWR Stability

    Författare :Ivan Gajev; Tomas Lefvert; Paolo Vinai; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BWR Stability; Sensitivity; Uncertainty; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Sammanfattning : Best Estimate codes are used for licensing, but with conservative assumptions. It is claimed that the uncertainties are covered by the conservatism of the calculation. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Design of Thermal Barrier Coatings

    Författare :Nicholas Curry; Nicolaie Markocsan; Per Nylén; Matthias Oechsner; Högskolan Väst; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial Gas Turbine; Aero Turbine; Thermal Barrier Coating; Atmospheric Plasma Spraying; Suspension Plasma Spraying; Thermal Conductivity; Thermo-cyclic fatigue; Thermal Shock; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Thermal barrier coatings (TBC’s) are used to provide both thermal insulation and oxidation protection to high temperature components within gas turbines. The development of turbines for power generation and aviation has led to designs where the operation conditions exceed the upper limits of most conventional engineering materials. LÄS MER

  5. 24. The Effect of Different Perturbations on the Stability Analysis of Light Water Reactors

    Författare :Victor Dykin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; BWR and PWR stability; stability indicators; propagating density perturbation; autocorrelation function; density wave oscillations; decay ratio; non-white driving force; damped harmonic oscillator; reduced order models; Green s function technique;

    Sammanfattning : Neutron noise analysis techniques are studied and developed, with primary useof determining the stability of Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs). In particular, the role ofa specific perturbation prevailing in Light Water Reactors, the propagating densityperturbation, in the stability of BWRs and on the noise field of LWRs in general, isinvestigated by considering three topics.
